Hi, One of the nastier things about epoll is how it allows nesting contexts inside each other, leading to the necessity of loop detection and the issues that have come with that. I don't believe there's any reason to support nesting on the io_uring side, in fact IORING_OP_EPOLL_CTL is a historical mistake, imho. But let's at least try and contain the damage and disallow nested contexts from our side. Changes since v1: - Add patch renaming struct epoll_filefd to struct epoll_key fs/eventpoll.c | 91 ++++++++++++++++++--------------------- include/linux/eventpoll.h | 8 ++++ io_uring/epoll.c | 18 +++++++- 3 files changed, 67 insertions(+), 50 deletions(-) -- Jens Axboe
